Assessing the vulnerability of marine sedimentary organic carbon : the influence of anthropogenic disturbance [PDF]
As anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations rise, there is an increasing need to re-evaluate our understanding of the complex interactions involved within the global carbon (C) cycle. C stored within marine sediments have previously been largely

MEDUSA-2.0: an intermediate complexity biogeochemical model of the marine carbon cycle for climate change and ocean acidification studies [PDF]
MEDUSA-1.0 (Model of Ecosystem Dynamics, nutrient Utilisation, Sequestration and Acidification) was developed as an "intermediate complexity" plankton ecosystem model to study the biogeochemical response, and especially that of the so-called "biological ...

Dissolved Organic Matter in the Global Ocean: A Primer
Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) holds ~660 billion metric tons of carbon, making it one of Earth’s major carbon reservoirs that is exchangeable with the atmosphere on annual to millennial time scales.

Nitrogen removal in marine environments: recent findings and future research challenges [PDF]
Respiratory reduction of nitrate (denitrification) is recognized as the most important process converting biologically available (fixed) nitrogen to N2. In current N cycle models, a major proportion of global marine denitrification (50–70%) is assumed to

National forest carbon harvesting and allocation dataset for the period 2003 to 2018 [PDF]
Forest harvesting is one of the anthropogenic activities that most significantly affect the carbon budget of forests. However, the absence of explicit spatial information on harvested carbon poses a huge challenge in assessing forest-harvesting impacts ...

Strong carbon cycle feedbacks in a climate model with interactive CO2 and sulphate aerosols [PDF]
Carbon cycle feedbacks are a significant source of uncertainty in climate change projections, with the potential for strong positive feedbacks to accelerate the rate of anthropogenic global warming during the 21st century.

An Effect-Based Method to Evaluate Spatio-Temporal Variations of Coastal Marine DOM Properties
Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a key component of the global carbon cycle. While marine DOM properties are usually characterized by chemical approaches, an effort to integrate its variations in an ecological perspective is needed. Heterotrophic

Seasonal Dynamics in Carbon Cycling of Marine Bacterioplankton Are Lifestyle Dependent
Although free-living (FL) and particle-attached (PA) bacteria are recognized as ecologically distinct compartments of marine microbial food-webs, few, if any, studies have determined their dynamics in abundance, function (production, respiration and substrate utilization) and taxonomy over a yearly cycle.

Remote sensing of young leaf photosynthetic capacity in tropical and subtropical evergreen broadleaved forests [PDF]
Determining the large-scale RuBisCO carboxylation maximum rate (Vc,max25) in relation to leaf age is essential for evaluating the photosynthetic capacity of canopy leaves in global forests.
